Shen Mu Ning looked at Ke Zheng An steadily after hearing his words.

"Old man, you have a good eye." This was indeed a compliment, because even Qian Zhuang hadn't seen through the disguise.

Ke Zheng'an laughed heartily, "It's nothing to mention, it's just a basic skill for medical students."

Shen Mu Ning raised an eyebrow, so the Ke family is a family of doctors.

And the rumored practice of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners recognizing people and examining their bones is indeed true.

In her previous life in the 21st century, she had heard similar rumors.

However, at that time, there were very few skilled traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, and she had never met one.

So I just thought it was a rumor, but I never expected to actually run into it today.

She originally thought that the Kemo family had a deep-rooted background, and that his grandfather must be the head of the family.

Komo has good aptitude and intelligence; with his grandfather's guidance, he is sure to become a great talent.

So she saved Ke Zheng'an only to do Ke Mo a favor and to let him be trained.

But Ke Zheng'an was the one who gave her a big surprise.

In this way, wouldn't Como become even more outstanding after his tutelage?

She could now sense Komo's gratitude towards her, and she figured their connection would likely continue.

When Ke Zheng'an said this, he was also secretly observing Shen Mu Ning.

Since the grandson is indeed unaware of his own body, Shen Mu Ning, who gave him the medication, is the person who needs close monitoring.

Just by looking at her unfamiliarity with the saying that medical students can recognize bones, you can tell that she is not a medical student.

However, his physical condition has indeed improved, so we can only try again.

"Thank you so much, young friend Shen, for helping me recover so well."

Shen Mu Ning thought to herself, "With the wood-type superpower I gave you, how could your body not recover?"

However, she suddenly realized that since the old man was studying medicine, he must know his own body well.

His internal injuries are still healing; the only things he can't improve are the natural aging process and the weakness caused by malnutrition.

In other words, he wanted to test whether he was the one who could help him recover.

After Shen Mu Ning figured it out, she naturally admitted it.

"Yes, it seems the old man has passed away from his serious illness."

Ke Zheng'an felt that this answer was both unexpected and reasonable.

He was just really curious: could there really be such a miraculous medicine that could cure people's illnesses so quickly?

However, he and Shen Mu Ning are not familiar with each other now, so it is not appropriate for him to ask.

Otherwise, wouldn't I be seen as someone who pries into other people's secret recipes?

While he may be curious about this, he shouldn't overstep his bounds.

"I am truly unable to repay your kindness today. If you need anything from me in the future, young friend Shen, I will do my best to help."

Shen Mu Ning saw that Ke Zheng An was very curious about the medicine that could heal the hidden injuries in his body.

But she wisely refrained from asking any further questions, and she was quite satisfied.

Even if he wanted to know, she wouldn't be able to provide any medicine.

My own superpowers are a very fantastical thing, how can I explain this?

However, we can study in the future how to preserve superpowers in some pills.

In this way, the medicine is what saves lives.

Shen Mu Ning was quite fond of Ke Zheng An's gratitude.

Although she is ill and doesn't need his help now, who can predict what will happen in the future?

Komo was unaware of the veiled meaning in their conversation, but he understood what his grandfather meant by repaying a debt of gratitude.

Saving his grandfather was his only wish, so repaying the debt of gratitude should naturally be his responsibility.

"Grandpa, I will repay your kindness."

Upon hearing this, Shen Mu Ning continued, "I do have something I need Ke Mo to do right now."

Ke Zheng'an looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression, and then Ke Mo recounted what had happened since he met his benefactor.

He had initially frowned when he heard Shen Mu Ning ask Ke Mo to keep watch, clearly indicating his disapproval.

She only relaxed her brow after Como demonstrated the physical exercises she had taught her.

Upon hearing that this was only the first level of physical techniques, he fell into deep thought.

As a descendant of a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, his martial arts, though not of the same origin as his medical skills, are a different art form.

But he has also witnessed impressive martial arts techniques.

Even if the physical skills his grandson demonstrated were only at the first level, they were already the pinnacle of any physical fitness martial art he had ever seen.

According to Sun Tzu, physical techniques become increasingly difficult and powerful as one progresses through the game.

Judging from this, this young friend Shen must come from a family with profound heritage, or be from a reclusive family.

Only then can one freely produce highly effective medicines and such superior martial arts.

In that case, he must seize this opportunity for his grandson.

We need to find a way to get our grandson onto Shen Xiaoyou's boat.

Shen Mu Ning and Ke Mo both looked at Ke Zheng An, whose expression was gradually becoming serious.

Komo thought his grandfather disagreed with him working for his benefactor and was trying to persuade his grandfather.

Shen Mu Ning also had this concern.

After all, tailing someone seems to be a very dangerous thing.

But she saved his life, so he can't just turn his back on her so quickly.

“Young friend Shen, you have already saved my life, and now you are teaching Mo’er such exquisite martial arts.”

"This is really inappropriate, really inappropriate."

When Shen Mu Ning heard Ke Zheng An's words, she thought he still had doubts about having Ke Mo keep an eye on him.

I wanted to explain, but before I could even open my mouth, I was asked to become his apprentice.

“Mo’er, now that you are receiving martial arts instruction from young friend Shen, it is only right that you formally become his disciple.”

That's right, Ke Zheng'an's idea was to have Ke Mo become his apprentice.

In these aristocratic families, the master-disciple relationship was equivalent to that of father and son, only slightly less than that of biological children.
